Ghana Strikers battle for Addis Ababa, Bahir Dar City clash

Addis Ababa City started the first round of the season struggling, but they soon got out of the woods and seemed to be coasting before a late slump saw them finish the round in lowly 14th position but they welcome Bahir Dar at the Adama Science and Technology University Stadium Thursday hoping to salvage their season.

Both sides parade Ghanaian Strikers, Richmond Adongo for Addis Ababa and Mawuli Osei for Bahir Dar and they will be the centre of attention in this game and one of them might be decisive.

Addis Ababa had been propelled by the superb form of Strikers Fitsum Tilahun and Adongo and they will again hope those two can rekindle their partnership for a better run.

Bahir Dar on the other hand can count on the double act of Mawuli Osei and Fitsum Alemu whose form earlier in the season kept them amongst the early challengers.

They will also be looking up to Ali Soliman to weigh in with some goals.

Bahir Dar are currently 7th on the table with 20 points and an equal number of wins, draws and loses with 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats and a win will propel them to the 6th position.

Addis on the other hand are languishing in the uncomfortable 14th position on 14 points and 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 defeats and a win will do them a world of good.
